Description of the problem | I have a 2011 ram 3500 dually cummins truck. If i hit a bump in the road at highway speed it will start a very violent shake that caused me to veer into the next lane. This has happened many times towing my rv or not towing. This truck has 61,000 miles on it. It has the tie rod recall done, the steering gear box replaced, several alignments and the problem continues. This truck is very dangerous to drive at highway speed ( 65 mph ). It passed alignment at brandon dodge and big o tire company. I am now afraid to pull my rv and even drive this truck on any highway. I have done much research on this issue and chrysler claims this issue has been fixed. These trucks are built and claim to be able to tow very heavy loads. They are extremely dangerous to drive and the only way to get the shaking to stop is to slow to 25 to 30 miles per hour while being on an interstate highway. This a very dangerous problem that fiat chrysler has claimed to be fixed, but its not fixed through the current recall. Please help my self as well as many heavy duty chrysler owners to get this problem repaired. Thankyou! |
